Wall Street Analyst: Bud Light's Loss of 15-20% of Its Sales is Permanent
Bud Light sales hit a fresh new low last week:
Bud Light claims that "misinformation" is the reason for their decline, but video shows them proudly supporting the Toronto Shame March, where pedophile-adjacent
Data from Bump Williams Consulting and NielsenIQ show that sales for Bud Light are down 28.5 percent year-over-year for the week ending June 17, according to the New York Post. That's a decline of about 2 percentage points from the week ending June 10, when sales dropped 26.8 percent, Bump Williams's data show. Anheuser-Busch's other brands, including Budweiser and Michelob Ultra, have also suffered year-over-year losses. Budweiser's sales are down 12.3 percent, Busch Light is down 8.1 percent, and Michelob Ultra is down 4 percent, according to Bump Williams and Nielsen IQ. At the same time, competitors like Yuengling Lager went up 25.1 percent, the data show. Coors Light saw a 21.8 percent increase, and Miller Lite went up 16 percent. And for the month of May, Constellation Brands-owned Modelo Especial was the number one-selling brand in the United States, outpacing Bud Light, which fell to number two, industry data show. Bump Williams, chief of the eponymous consulting company, told the New York Post on June 21, "This was a tough week for Bud Light and other beer brands" that are owned by Anheuser-Busch, including Budweiser. Sales of Budweiser were down by 10 percent, Natural Light was down by 2.3 percent, and Michelob Ultra was down by 2.4 percent.
naked men paraded their penises in front of children. And check out what appeared on Bud Light's stage there -- or don't. CONTENT WARNING for cosmic revulsion. Has Bud Light lost the taint of its old "fratty" humor yet, Alissa?
The forecasts call for the current losses to be permanent. And not only have they lost 15-20% of their sales volume permanently, but they'll go back to losing market share bit-by-bit before they came up with the brilliant idea of bringing in Dylan Mulvaney as a transfluencer. The article seems to spin for Anheuser-Busch, saying that people should buy their stock because it's lost as much as it's going to lose. But in offering that advice, the analyst admits that A-B's sales losses are permanent.
I can't see any of this as good news:
It's time to buy Bud Light's stock even if Americans aren't back to buying Bud Light just yet, according to Deutsche Bank analyst Mitch Collett. Collett upgraded Bud Light's parent company, Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD), from Hold to Buy and raised his price target from $52 to $60, noting that Bud Light is "at the end of the tunnel" of its controversy. "We believe recent underperformance implies a permanent reduction in ABI's US business," Collett wrote. "Our proprietary survey data suggests these headwinds are likely to fade even if we do not expect the US business ever to fully recover from its current challenges."
In the week ending June 10, Bud Light sales declined 26.8% compared to the same period a year prior, marking the ninth straight week of declines greater than 20%, according to Nielsen. Analysis from Evercore ISI indicates that volume declines are steadying in a range of 26-28%, though no recovery is in sight yet. ABInBev's stock has stumbled amid the declining sales reports and Modelo surpassing Bud Light as the top-selling beer in America. Shares are down roughly 13% since the beginning of April when the Mulvaney ad campaign was launched.Another analyst agrees that Tranheuser's loss of sales is permanent.
... But some Wall Street analysts don't see good times ahead for the Bud Light brand itself. Deutsche Bank sees some of Bud Light's declines as a "permanent reduction" in AbInBev's US business. Evercore ISI analyst Robert Ottenstein agrees. "Bud Light will permanently lose about 15-20% of its volume, after which declines will resume at about the average rate of the prior 10 years," Ottenstein wrote in a note on Wednesday. "Budweiser will also see a similar pattern, with consumers lost in 2022 not coming back."Instead of apologizing to its customers or firing the parties responsible, Bud Light has decided to bring back a "beloved" icon. No, not the Wazzup guys. Not the Budweiser frogs. Not even Spuds MacKenzie. No, remember, the Sorority Sad-Sack Alissa Heinerscheid branded Bud Light has having previously been known for "fratty" "bad humor." So they can't bring back those "fratty" "bad humor" icons. Every headline would say, Bud Light brings back advertising campaign its VP of advertising called "fratty" and "bad humor." Well not every headline would say that -- but the honest ones would. So they're bringing back an "icon" that I have never heard of, dating from all the back
to 2018. Yes, the "Bud Knight" is back. Can you feel the excitement?!?!
So iconic I never heard of him. Then again, I gave up football when it got too woke so I just haven't been watching television when they're most likely to run beer ads.
Bud Light reintroduces the Bud Knight
Hero from advertising past arrives on social as brand attempts to regain momentum following boycott
Bud Light has recruited a hero of its past, the Bud Knight, to reinforce its message on social media. Is he a white knight? Bud Light on Monday reawakened a hero from its advertising past when the "Bud Knight" tweeted for the first time since February 2021. The character was established in 2018 by Bud Light's then-agency Wieden+Kennedy as part of the brand's "Dilly Dilly" universe. On Monday, the account wrote "Yeah, I'm thinking I'm back," which was subsequently quote-tweeted by Bud Light's Twitter account, saying "Guess who's back?" ... Todd Allen, VP of marketing for Bud Light, confirmed the Bud Knight was back. "Since inception, the Bud Knight has shown up to remind fans that the best moments are made better when celebrated with a Bud Light," Allen said in a statement. "The Bud Knight is an iconic character, and he's coming back to delight fans on social media, reinforcing our message that Bud Light is easy to drink, easy to enjoy this summer."

Starbucks denies these allegations -- Allegations of Sanity, if you ask me -- but there are a lot of claims from individual stores that owners have instructed workers to take down all the homosexual festoonery. This is supposedly video of Starbucks employees taking down "rainbow" decorations:
Dozens of Starbucks U.S. locations were picketed on Sunday over allegations by the baristas' union that managers at several stores removed Pride flags and decor. On Friday, the union announced the strike, which is purported to be joined by 3,000 workers at over 150 Starbucks over the next week, making it the largest national strike against Starbucks ever staged. Near the route of the city's Pride parade, workers picketed outside a lower Manhattan, New York store on Sunday, chanting, "New York is a union town! On Strike! Shut it down!" Several customers refused to cross the picket line to patronize the establishment. Maggie McKeon, a would-be customer heading into the location, decided to turn around after hearing about the strike, saying: "If people are going to be affected by this, then I'm with them, not the company."

Bud Light's misinfo claim is thin gruel.
The argument goes like this, if anyone cares:
"The Dylan Mulvaney thing was a one-off endorsement but some of the reporting about the event called it a 'campaign' and so people thought it was a long-term deal rather than the single event. This damaged the brand by misrepresenting the story."
Baloney.

The two are distinct and shouldn't be conflated.
The stock has probably finished its drop for now, but the sales declines and the effects of those declines on the parent corporation's profitability and creditworthiness are not yet known. It will take a year or two to shake out, and that assumes that the declines have now stabilized (probably a decent bet).

Maybe. That might end up being the case, but only if Tranheuser-Busch doesn't screw up again for a while.
But this *also* assumes that there is little if any overlap among the customers that they lost over the Mulvaney/Heinerscheid debacle and the customer base that was naturally leaking out. That is, they assume that the big recent drop is in a different part of the market and so those customers the brand has been bleeding off anyway are an entirely different category - it's just the bleeding specifically attributable to them is overwhelmed by the Heinerscheid Hemorrhage. What is the basis for that assumption? What if the customers that fled because of this were *also* the ones who were drifting away anyway, and so all this was at the end of the day was an accelerator on the trend - ripping the band-aid off instead of slowly peeling it away?
This doesn't strike me as a piece of brilliant analysis.

That means nothing about the future prospects of Bud Light when they are offering 80-90% discounts on the price!
Some poor frat boys will drink even "socially unacceptable" alcohol if the price is low enough.
I want to see the Bud Light sales figures when they go back to pricing it similar to the price of comparable light beers.
I suspect we might see sales declines in the 30-35% range then.

Eh, a special printing run isn't very hard to do. It may well have just been a novelty product for a one-off event. Nobody every saw one of those cans in the wild, which would be unlikely if it was a whole campaign (since they'd have some stock ready to go and it would hit at least the distributors).

The one think they claimed to want, just to be seen as 'regular people', was and has always been a lie. Regular people cut rafters and build houses, they run companies that make things that people want, they drive trucks that haul everything we need to survive. They don't walk around naked in front of children.

Job was familiar with Leviathon (a dinosaur) and Nimrod, leader of Babel, hunted them.

ESG is just another management fad, except that where previous management fads just wore down employees by making them "buy a ticket" or "claim their energy" or whatever to be on a team, it led to "tell your customers to fuck off because they don't recycle enough and to suck the tranny dick."
That ESG got to where it is today is an indictment of the entire management class.

In June, Alissa Heinerscheid became the first woman to lead Bud Light in the brand’s 40-year history. And she has wasted no time getting to work. Heinerscheid, 38, oversaw a creative agency review that led to the late August hiring of Anomaly, which is taking over from Wieden+Kennedy, signaling big marketing changes ahead for the nation’s largest beer brand.

I believe the Scriptures and there is a very fascinating category of study that considers Maximums (eg. Magnetic fields, moon orbits, ocean salinity, Helium, etc.)
First problem is that "dinosaurs" are a recently defined category. Hollywood makes us think they all were huge (only a few varieties were) Based on Scriptures, cave drawings and historical narratives (see Emanuel Velinkovsky's work) "dinosaurs" were common until maybe three thousand years ago. They certainly were alive and plentiful at the time of the Great Deluge. Noah was told to bring reproducing kinds aboard (most likely newly hatched) and they probably existed until hunted out of existence long after the Flood.

Part of it is how the economy has changed. The biggest companies used to be energy companies. Now it's all Tech companies primarily located around San Francisco. Young little shits being the Founders. Very little government regulation to contend with, so they can dabble in social marxism without repercussions. .
So we now unfortunately have a very liberal, white collar managerial class in corporate America.

Also explains why he was not In The Party - no ancestry prior to Ellis Island. The elites that run The Party having heritage back to colonial times means status... also means out of your 100+ aprents, grandparents, etc. it is very likely you'll have a slave owner in there.
Hell, there are certainly more descendents of slave owners than slave owners thenselves. It isn't that hard to understand, but they print that report to support modern slavery (reparations).

We do not have a Brookshires near Farmers Branch, Texas.
Where are they? Never been in a Brookshires.
I went to Conecuh website - the ONLY store they mention is Fiesta.
Posted by: Glenn John at June 27, 2023 05:19 PM (RilAR)
Brookshires is ETex, so northeast and yeah, I don't think they get within an hour of DFW. I'm guessing they didn't show up in your search results based on the search radius you used.
Which is too bad because it's tasty stuff.

Yes it is. I have found it on the shelf every time I have been to Fiesta. And yes it is delicious. (The radius was 25 miles). I am afraid they are going to stop carrying it so I buy some every chance I get.

Roseanne was equating the "truth" that Biden got 81 million votes with the "truth" that no one died in the Holocaust; both are transparently ludicrous assertions.

The overuse of "iconic" is certainly annoying.
But the overuse of "iconoclast" gets me too. Iconoclasm denotes extremely disruptive, violent, world-historical behavior by total renegades who aren't afraid to break *all* the rules.
It's not a word for "oooh, he danced around in a plus-sized devil costume at the Grammys" during a time when that kind of shit is de rigeur.

Truth in advertising laws being what they are, might I suggest: GROOMER'S PALE AIL.
And no, the third word ain't a typo.
They can put it into penis shaped cans, so their customers can just "suck it down".
Their commercials can feature Spuds McKenzie doing it "doggy style". i.e., likking himself. With some CGI making his doggie peen look just like the penis shaped cans.
I mean, c'mon AB. You're in neck deep already, just take the full dive into the sewer. It's already full the discards of your market-rejected swill.

This whole thing has the characteristics of a perfect storm:
Other beer is available. Nobody's going dry.
Varieties of other beer are available. There are choices.
Those who like to talk about beer as if they're top-end conoycers...."a good IPA", emphasizing the indefinite article as their wine-loving brethren do, have hours of delicious argumentation ahead.
The trans/Q/ coming-for-your-kids thing is all over the place, is amorphous, a shifting target and Bud Light pulled all of that stuff right over its center of mass and yelled "SHOOT HERE!"
Personally, I like whatever beer is closest when I open the cooler, preferring that which somebody else brought and particularly if it has twist-off tops.
